This giveaway is now closed, congratulations to Luv to Save, comment # 41 who said: blog follower as ethelluvtosave at gmail.com Thank you to everyone who entered!I am diabetic, so sugary fruit juices, sodas, and even carb laden but good for you milk tend to drive my blood sugar levels sky high. So in an effort to maintain good control over my sugars, I often end up drinking a lot of water to stay hydrated. But drinking plain water can get rather boring to the taste buds after awhile.

Environment & Money: Switching from bottled water to filtered and a reusable bottle can eliminate up to 3,200 plastic bottles and save one person up to $600 annually.

Health: The EPA estimates that approximately 20% of Americans’ lead exposure is attributable to tap water. PUR filters are certified to reduce many contaminants, including 98% of lead, 99.9% of microbial cysts and 99% of pharmaceuticals.

Philanthropy: With each purchase of a PUR filter, a donation is made to Children’s Safe Drinking Water which has, to date, provided over 1.5 billion liters of clean water to needy children and their families around the world.

The pitcher is smaller and holds less than another brand of water filtration pitcher that we also own. The PUR Favor Options water pitcher holds 7, 8-ounce glasses of water but it seemed like I had to refill it a lot. BUT on the upside, it actually fit in our fridge door unlike the other brand's. I'd like the option for a larger pitcher as well as the space saving one currently available, cause some of us like big glasses at a time.

I liked the lemon flavoring a lot, it tastes like water with a lemon slice in it. The raspberry flavoring tasteed a little bit too artificial to me. But it is still pleasant tasting and a flavor I'd buy again, I just like lemon a lot more.

Overall:

Excellent value for your money that provides a lot of variety. It's good for your health, good for the environment, and the pocketbook. It's a win win all around☺

I like the idea of it and these are great! Most important to me is the lead,copper,minerials that it filters out.. Next is how many plastic bottles that u keep out of the landfill! would love to win this for my daughter in law julie and her family...alwaysatryin at gmail.com

Why choose Pur? Well - we are a water drinking family and I'm not a fan of tap water. Soooo....that's lots and lots of bottled water! Granted we recycle but I would love to be able to save some money and have a Pur pitcher....

Well, all the reasons are fantastic, but I like that it is affordable and I can buy stuff for like 15 bucks!I like healthy water with flavor & so does my 2 yr old. I think this will be great for her - it is like tricking her that it is juice :) without the sugar!!!THANKS!Jill Kathanjillmsu@yahoo.com

I'am a pre-diabetic and coming from a family of diabetics. I need to drink more water! But plain water gets to be so BORING! I love the thought of having 4 flavors to choose from to make water tasty! This would do the trick for sure.
